More Trim work

Work is moving forward, I'm down to once every two weeks or so. Spent a couple of days working on trim and getting the front door in. I've got wiring started, but it's all tempted in. Needed to focus directly on the electricity one of these weekends. Here are some pictures of the skylight trim. It's a couple small details, but much like the outside, I had to move the ladder around about twenty times to get it all installed.



And a couple pictures with the front door on. Looks like I still need to clean the place up a bit before the storms really hit.

Final photos of the weekend

Here's the last photos I took , the roofer was still finishing up the ridge pieces and the final flashing on the skylight. Plus it's starting to look a bit messy even after we did a couple rounds of cleaning.
Next time a couple more dump runs.

Roof on just in time for the storm.

I also got the roof on this weekend. The roofer had put the ice shield up earlier in the week, but he got the shingles up and the flashing set for the skylight. Now that we have the skylight set in place eveything's starting to look like a real house.




Here's a couple pictures of the skylight from the inside. Hard to tell it's there, it's actually a shadded double pane glass with an electric lift. Hard to get a good photo with or without the flash, so I kept both.




I tried taking a picture looking into the cabin from above the skylight, but it created this artsy mirror image instead.

PG&E hooked up electrical while I was gone. When I got there the meter was set and ready to go. It seems to be some new fangled meter, I think actually calls up the electric company to tell them how much I'm using. Here's the initial meter reading. Starting from scratch.
The Economist had an interesting article on Silver Springs Networks and how these meters will be used in the future.
